  1. for me the advantage is ease of use w/o software and a pod/paD/phone. as a requirement the BT will work from my iPod , which i set up for fun but Im in the kitchen often enough for fluid-balance , etc
  2. branches work fine if they are thicker than you finger. they do pruning from time to time for sure I don't really know if bark by itself has the same aroma's as the inner wood.
  3. at 99 why not , if you need one.
  4. not S. of the Boarder did the code come in an email and did it say it was good for 3 times ? the initial sale price here for the BT is $ 109. then 20 % off from that price. Target dropped the price to 109 about a week ago , Amazon followed suit a few days after that then this additional deal .
  5. if someone wants and Anova and does not have the code PM me. its good for two more visits. as far as I can tell initial sale : https://us.anovaculinary.com/?utm_source=Anova+Food+Nerd+Family&utm_campaign=bb874910c2-special_offer_mothers_day_2018_d01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_0315742ebc-bb874910c2-105667581&goal=0_0315742ebc-bb874910c2-105667581&mc_cid=bb874910c2&mc_eid=ce98542659 then an additional 20 % off w code. I think that's per order the BT then comes in at $ 87.20 . free shipping no tax ( here ) first come , first served.
  6. maybe yours is a newer version of the above you can hear it move up and down when you invert and re-vert the lid. you can always try it out w a cup of water and see what happens it will pop up when pressure is reached or just vent steam if not working properly.
  7. Cherry is very very nice. I always same the cherry wood that sometimes comes w my cord wood. hunt down an old cherry tree. well worth it.
  8. @Orbit Im not sure what model you have. is it V1 ? w/o the handles ? I think the valve should look like this : call them explain the situation and ask where you can send the pic of your iP top.
  9. Anova has a mothers day sale an additional 20 % off the sale price w a code that can be used 3 times so I got my spare BT for 87.20 delivered. I guess you have to ask for an email or sighn up for their regular emails.
  10. @Honkman living near the RedLine makes shopping in Cambridge and Boston easy. Im personally allergic to WF. its not for me . No Parking. also if W'g was on the other side of TJ's, it would be a different matter ... Id rarely stop in still packaged meat looks promising , esp on sale compared with what i can get locally. its going to very interesting to see how the store does being so large w so many emplyees the prepared food is probably going to make or break them. Some of the pastries seem to be made there , and Im not sure about the bread. I aked about two loaf's that interested me. I think but do not quote me that they said they were baked in NY and surprising to me , as they are new and want to generate traffic they are very stingy w samples Id think each department would have something as they have plenty of staff. I only had some aged ham on one trip and a delicious pear tart on another. and for me , its on the way to Tj's. but MarketBasket and Tj's are my main stops there is a new MB on 128 in Wlatham I think. try that if you are motoring around TotalWine is the only reason to come out to Natick. I always see cars from NH and CT in the lot. far larger selection than W's or any supermarket and cheaper sometimes cars from NY and Maine. one last thought : their prepared refrigerated food selection is immense I didn't look into how long its shelf life is but they much have a tremendous amount of waste I hope they donate what they can. many store do this.
  11. @Honkman I cannot disagree with you on the fresh veg and the like I do pic and choose just to be clear Alewife is a long long ways away. as is Cambridge , and Boston. If those places were easy to get to good for you.
  12. @Toliver nice Esp. for our eG friends at altitude. me : I have the WorkHorse I use frequently and a spare in a Box " just in case " I do note there are a few baskets that have been made for the iPot and that is a key item to have : not on sale but : https://www.amazon.com/Hatrigo-Accessories-available-InstaPot-Pressure/dp/B07899VVBZ/ref=pd_sim_79_5?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B07899VVBZ&pd_rd_r=VT7W5QFHQYC8BYK3AJ98&pd_rd_w=EquJ0&pd_rd_wg=WFYkp&psc=1&refRID=VT7W5QFHQYC8BYK3AJ98 and several others

    I see one or two water poached eggs on RaR as being just right
  15. over here : https://forums.egullet.org/topic/156629-new-wegmans-near-boston/?tab=comments#comment-2152225 I bought some boneless short ribs , and SV'd them here are my results : here is one bag of the SR's note the Jus. Ill get to that. here is the meat ' carved ' for a sandwich w the Jus in the small bowl : its hard to compare the beef I eat , as Ive not had the cuts , SV'd at the same time. this meat was delicious. I do like the RB40 effect , but I think I put a tad too much on this meat. I aim for tender rare beef w Full Flavor , knowing that the Cut determines the flavor and the bath determines tenderness. Id also like to get the two effect w as little Jus in the bag. after all , it comes from the meat. Id like it to stay in the meat. I put some RB40 , then some more etc on this cut. the Jus did not taste salty , nor like fermented fish but I knew RB40 was involved. the meat was tender exactly as I like it. it also had a full flavor mostly of beef , but RB40 w not off fishy flavors. what I learned is to put a bit less RB40 on the meat in the future as as maybe that added to the Jus in the bag. I do have some Strip Steaks Ill do the RB40 to but just enough to very lightly coat each surface. I have two SR's in the freezer , and when the StripSteak experiment concludes Ill pull one out and caomnpair it seem to me that the new Wegmans has very once beef and Ill look them over for the future experiments.

    Dinner 2018

    Salty , are they ? I think I recall from so long ago ... back in the day of B & W TV " The San Fan Francisco Treat " https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzOR_Fal_SY way before two weeks of sodium might not be best in each teaspoon. and I grew up just S of there and nobody I knew made it in SF just saying of course my sister and I made so much trouble we maybe had it twice. "San Francisco : famous for Food " ?? and who wears gloves and waves to the cable car operator ?
  22. @Anna N The Pork items above look delicious and crunchy I tried to go back to your previous thread but lost my my. of course i did not try very hard what are those 1/2 moon piggy items ? and if you did not make them how are they made ? I did enjoy the pic of the miso shrimp they looked to me like the plumpest shrimp Ive ever seen and not yet tried
  23. @weedy thanks for some reason from time to time I can't see vids like the one you embeded it says " use original player " I do appreciate your help.
  24. @scubadoo97 very good to know My goal is to get tender , but at a lower temp so the muscles do not contract as much and more Jus stays in the meat. after that : High temp grill or broil for the color and flavor Quote : "The Jus you see in that SV bag , used to be in the Meat " Me , just now.
  25. @kayb Im trying to use SV at a low temp to keep as much Jus in the meat. Wegman's pork shoulder was bone-in so I went with a Strip-Steak experiment this time : https://forums.egullet.org/topic/156629-new-wegmans-near-boston/?page=2&tab=comments#comment-2152860 last entry.
